Hello Crafters!

Head over Scrappando's blog to see how I made this grocery list on a roll! It is a really easy DIY project that is cute as a gift for our moms!

Obviously I didn't invent this project, I was browsing Pinterest and found a similar project (but with a different way to attach the roll paper on the cardboard) and I decided to show you my interpretation!

Are you curious to know how I made it? Go HERE!!

I hope you will like the result, as always for any comments, questions, suggestions etc etc please leave a comment HERE !

Till next time, xoxo!

LO - Mirror

(Leggi questo in Italiano)
(Leave a Comment)

...Do you know that feeling you have when in front of you there is a couple that love eachothers so much? One of these couples that you can see it from far away that they are just the other half of eachothers. You can feel it right away, from the way they stare in each other eyes, you can feel it by the way they talk , by their complicity.

I wrote so many times about ElenaB , one of the italian artists that I admire, but I always wrote about her as an artist infact...or as a big friend. Today I want to show you her as a great woman,a great wife and also a great mom.

In the photo you can see her husband Massi and herself. As I take a loot at the photo I listen to the song that inspired me , Justin Timberlake 's song...and I know that this song is perfect for that photo.
This song is them, this photo is them!

I worked on this LO all night, because I like to complicate my life ahhaha!!

...to see the step by step, head over here @ Scrappando!!

I hope you will like the result, as always for any comments, questions, suggestions etc etc please leave a comment HERE!

Till next time, xoxo!

(Leave a Comment)

Hello Crafters!

.. here we are with a new month, and with a new month us at the Scrappando blog have a new challange for you!

Go here to check it out what the team made!

You have time till 30th April 11.55 pm CET to join us! The winner will be our next guest designer, plus to ANYONE that take part of the challange there is a 5% off any purchase made in the shop.

These are the Challange Elements:

Color Palette (see here the color pallette)
Gesso
Watercolor

For my interpretation I made a card off a Bazzil French Vanilla as the base. Then I cut a piece of watercolor paper where I created my background using distress inks : Milled Lavander e Tattered Roses

I then stamped my sentiment with Versamark Ink and poured over some Gold Embossing Powder. (My sentiment is a stamp from this collection Kesi'Art Les Belles Choses.)
I applied gesso, added some sequins, did some doodling around the sentiment to create interest and then I matted my piece over a piece of Bazzil Peach.

I hope you will like the result, as always for any comments, questions, suggestions etc etc please leave a comment HERE !

Till next time, xoxo!

Hello Crafters!

Have you checked out already our Sketch #87 at Sketchalicious?

You have until 9th april @ 8.00 pm CET.

Useless to say how much I lately love gold! And here I am again using it with this sketch. I found that sketch really interesting and versatile.
For my card base I used black bazzil and over it I adhere a piece of watercolor cardstock. For the background I played around with Gold Gelatos and Distress Ink - Tattered Rose (yes I know you might be like "whaa???" but I truly swear that I used some pink here!)
I then stamped my background with my all time favourite stamp set Stampers Anonymous - Papillon.

Added some splatters with Studio Calico - Mister Huey's Black and with the Black gel pen i draw the border linees.

As a touch I added Gold Sequins and a small tab that my friend Chiara gifted it to me (using this punch)

For the sentiment I stamped and then embossed with Judykins gold embossing powder.
Again I went for the monochromatic card....had any doubts about it? LOL!

I hope you will like the result, as always for any comments, questions, suggestions etc etc please leave a comment HERE !

Till next time, xoxo!
